A much warmer night tonight which meant a lot of Crane flies and I mean a lot...hundreds of the little buggers but they didn't seem to deter the moths so there were hundreds of them again too, a lot of Carpet moths showed up tonight and more micros even though it was fairly windy.
The trap was out from 10:15pm till 3am and the temperature stayed at around 16c
